Fox News Channel has been the most-watched cable news network for 19 straight years among both total day and primetime viewership.
The historic streak that began in January 2002 includes both the total-viewers crown and the key demographic of adults age 25-54, as Fox News has been atop both categories for nearly two decades. We are extremely proud that viewers have consistently tuned in to our slate of original programming for nearly two decades, choosing Fox News as their go-to destination for not only breaking news coverage, but insightful analysis from a diversity of viewpoints, Fox News Media CEO Suzanne Scott said.
Ken Jennings, at least for the time being.
According to NextTV, the show’s 74-time champ’s first week of guest hosting the long-running game show to fill in the shoes of the late
Alex Trebek was a success. While the show declined in 6 percent from the week after Trebek’s last batch of episodes aired, the game show stopped syndication with a 6.2 live plus same day national household rating, as per Nielsen Media Research. Following
Jeopardy! was fellow game show alum
Wheel of Fortune with 5.8 in ratings, a figure that beat out
Family Feud and
Judge Judy for the second spot.
Ken Jennings guest hosting the long-running game show to replace
Alex Trebek. Jennings also gained more love from show viewers with his sign off message after each episode ( Thank You, Alex ) and now we have some backstory to the creation of the closing line.
Jennings took to Twitter on Monday (February 1) to reveal that the idea to pay tribute to Trebek at the conclusion of every broadcast came from the top of production. Thanks, Alex was suggested as a sign-off by executive producer
Mike Richards, and I’m glad he did. There wouldn’t be a show without Alex, Jennings wrote in a reply to a fan’s commentary on the sign off. Every single time @KenJennings thanks Alex at the end of @Jeopardy, I get all choked up. I hope he never stops, the fan wrote in her initial message.
